If you’ve just bought a new gas cooker and you’re wondering what to do next —
you’ve come to the right place. Getting a gas cooker installed might sound
straightforward, but it’s one of those jobs that must be carried out
by a Gas Safe registered engineer.

In this guide, we’ll walk you through everything you need to know:
installation costs, what’s included, how long it takes, and why you should
never attempt it yourself.

What Does Gas Cooker Installation Cost in London?

Gas cooker installation in London typically starts from
£50 for a standard replacement installation using an
existing gas supply connection.

Prices may vary depending on appliance type, installation complexity,
and whether additional pipework is required.

Why You Must Use a Gas Safe Registered Engineer

Under UK law, only a Gas Safe registered engineer
is legally permitted to work on gas appliances in residential properties.

Incorrect gas cooker installation can result in:

• Gas leaks and fire hazards
• Carbon monoxide poisoning
• Invalid home insurance claims
• Unsafe appliance operation
• Failed landlord safety inspections

All our engineers are fully Gas Safe registered and provide
Gas Safety Certificates after installation.

What’s Included in a Gas Cooker Installation?

Our standard installation service includes:

1. Disconnecting the old cooker safely
2. Connecting the new appliance
3. Securing the cooker properly
4. Testing burners and oven operation
5. Checking for gas leaks
6. Issuing a Gas Safety Certificate

If extra pipework or modifications are needed, we’ll provide a
transparent quote before any work begins.

How Long Does Installation Take?

A standard gas cooker replacement normally takes around
1–2 hours.

More complex installations involving new pipework or dual fuel
connections may take longer.
